Nature Abounds in and Around Our Community
Few places can compete with Hilton Head for nature lovers. Wildlife abounds on land, in lagoons and in the ocean. Indigo Run is centrally located to many of the Island's public parks, pathways, and major waterways. If you are a nature lover, check with the Coastal Discovery Museum for nature walks, kayaking, and bird watching programs at Honey Horn Plantation. Don't forget to sign up for our community nature tours as they occur!

Great blue herons, snowy egrets, wood storks, American oystercatchers, and roseate spoonbills frequent the lagoon edges and Broad Creek shoreline throughout the year.
Red-tailed hawks, barred owls, painted buntings, and Carolina wrens nest in Indigo Run's mature tree canopy. The rookery on Otter Creek is a spectacular seasonal gathering.
American alligators, river otters, largemouth bass, and soft-shell turtles share our 46 lagoons. Catch-and-release fishing is a popular community pastime.
